I was tagged by the lovely @sarahjanesimps to join in on this inversion challenge and sure hey it’s a short one so why not 😉! Thank you for the tag Sarah 😁😁💗💗! I have tagged a few friends too in case anyone would like to join me. Day one was a straight up inversion and I haven’t really been practicing any inversions at all lately but I decided to go with a pincha 😊💗🙌😁! I took all of my pictures tonight but I can’t do a lotus pose so that one is always a challenge to come up with an alternative 😅😅! #Repost @sarahjanesimps with @get_repost

Day 1 of #ThankfulForPincha today is #straightlegs I think I'll follow our lovely hosts & focus on things I'm grateful for.
I was recently told that everytime you experience anxiety, try to find something to be grateful for in it. So today, at the crazy busy grocery store which is always a place of anxiety for me, I sought out gratitude. Anxiety always hits me at the checkout. Especially if my kids are with me. So when those same old feelings arose....I locked onto, "I'm so grateful that when I go over my desired total I have my credit card to cover me. I'm so grateful that my husband has such a great job where we can pay our credit cards off every month." And just like that....I forgot I was feeling anxious. 🙏

Day 1 of #ThankfulforPincha
Today, I am thankful for my new Gym buddy and being capable of that killer booty workout we did today. Even tho, I probably won't be able to walk tomorrow. Lol
I sure felt a lot straighter than this, need to work on that banana back, I suppose.

—– I’ve been obsessed with this posture the last months. This feeling of control, of balance, of strength, and at the same time this feeling of softness, of silence, of meticulousness. It requires a lot of focus, a lot of breathing, a lot of patience and a lot of perseverance. A lot of failure, a lot of trying again, a lot of it’s gonna work this time but fall once more. A lot of discipline, a lot of tolerance, a lot of time. My weak shoulder still hurts and blocks me a little in my balance. But at the same time, it enables me to strengthen that same shoulder et build my foundation with more stability. It also learns me that I should never take things for granted. Because, everyday is different. Some will be glorious, some will be outrageous, and that’s how we find the right balance.

Happy Monday and Happy Week 💙
.
After a busy weekend, finally taking advantage of the long weekend to have some rest 😴
.
And so happy to join to #alwaysthankfulyogis cuz I adore these girls and I've been feeling so grateful with life recently that I need to express my feelings. .
Today I'm definitely grateful for having a place to sleep. Don't take anything for granted... Life is a cycle and nothing is actually insured. .
I'm so so thankful for all the good people that I've found on my way. And I'm so thankful for having my "little hairball" by my side each morning and a cup of good coffee... All #thelittlepleasures .

✖️THINGS I WISH I KNEW BEFORE I STARTED PART 2✖️
⠀
8)There’s many people who are natural that look like they are on gear and there’s many people on gear who barely look like they lift. But who gives a shit who’s natural or not. I don’t understand those natty or not videos, If you want to take steroids, take them, nobody cares, it’s your choice..
⠀
9)It’s most likely not the training program or diet that’s reason you’re not progressing fast enough, it’s fact you keep jumping to the next shiny object and not letting time run it’s course.
⠀
10)Most people who ask you for advice really just want you to confirm their stand on something, most people don’t want a lecture. I never give unsolicited advice anymore, if someone doesn’t agree with you it often feels like trying to debate a 6 year old, you’ll never win with logic

F.A.I.L. = First Attempt In Learning 😂
Didn’t want to post this today, but one day I’ll look back and remember that time I gave myself face burn from one foot off the ground 💀

The hardest part about training inversions alone is not the intrinsic motivation to do it- I’m excited to get the chance to practice every day. The hardest part is having to admit my weaknesses to myself so I can take a few steps back and get on the right track. •

This was a wake up call to get back to the wall to practice my line in forearm stand. Remember that regressing in practice does not equal regressing in progress, rather the opposite 🙌🏼 Inspired today by @handstanddiary #consistencyiskey#practicemakesprogress#headstandtoforearmstandjourney#mondaymotivation#yogafail

Today is different.
For the first time in awhile I feel energized by the opportunities that lie ahead of me.
I'm eager to move beyond recent moments that I've considered failures and view them as simply the unique features of my life; the twists and turns that are continuously leading me to where I'm supposed to be.
I feel empowered to start focusing on myself; my body, my mental health, my soul.
I'm ready try things new and reconnect with those old.
I'm ready to see who I am.

I was recently inspired by many Yogi's on Instagram and their forearm stands. Here is my first go at it!

Day 1️⃣ of #ThankfulForPincha is straight legs. I’m gonna start off this challenge with why I’m truly thankful for pincha! Almost 5 years ago was when I really started diving deep into my yoga practice and was when I learned that forearm stand even existed. I thought scorpion pose was the coolest looking yoga pose so I went home after class one night, put my forearms down and started kicking up my legs with abandon. I set up my laptop to capture some pics too (maybe I can find these later 😬) and after many a try I started being able to catch a hold occasionally. Now look at my pincha, I can even catch a hold on my first kick up if I try hard enough now! If you want to learn a yoga pose, set that intention, keep practicing (and not just one pose but all the poses!) and eventually it will come. After all, #practiceandalliscoming .
So thank you pincha. Thank you for existing and thank you for teaching me that I am strong and capable of extraordinary things! ❤️✨
